Fractional mesotherapy of facial skin is one of the most modern methods of hardware cosmetology

The effect of mesotherapy

Mesotherapy effectively eliminates a number of aesthetic defects - dry skin, pigmentation, fine wrinkles, acne, post-acne, stretch marks, scars, skin dehydration. The procedures can be performed on women and men of any age, starting from 18 years of age. The achieved result is maintained for up to 1.5 years.

Patients who regularly undergo maintenance procedures note that the quality of their skin changes for the better and even skincare products apply to it completely differently. For example, if previously a jar of daily care cream lasted for a month, now it lasts for 3-5 or even six months.

Reviews about the procedure

Natalya, Tolyatti

“I really like to take care of my appearance. A couple of years ago, I read about fractional mesotherapy in a magazine, and soon my cosmetologist recommended this procedure. I immediately agreed and tried it out. Since then I have been doing this procedure regularly. Wrinkles in the eye area and nasolabial fold instantly disappear, and the face takes on a fresh and rested appearance. I really love this procedure, I am especially pleased with the price-quality ratio. There is no pain and minimal time is wasted. It is very important for me. I recommend it to anyone who wants to quickly and efficiently rejuvenate their skin.”

After a course of procedures you can notice a bright effect

Ekaterina, Moscow

“I tried this procedure only once. The effect is really visible immediately: fine wrinkles are gone, pores are narrowed. Of course, now I want to take the full course to get maximum results. I think I’ll be even more delighted.”

Irina, Novosibirsk

“I really love procedures, the results of which do not need to wait for weeks, or even months. Therefore, mesotherapy is my favorite way to rejuvenate. Previously, I only underwent classical mesotherapy procedures, but recently I learned about fractional mesotherapy and decided to try it too. The result pleased me even more! I didn't expect this. I’m used to a little discomfort during mesotherapy, but now I haven’t experienced any at all. Of course, now I will only go through the fractional version, and besides, its price is no higher.”

As a rule, patients are satisfied with the results of the procedure

Possible complications

Compared to the classic method of injection mesotherapy, hardware causes fewer side effects. But if you compare it with the non-injection method, the risks are much higher. When preparing for the procedure, the cosmetologist is obliged to warn you about all the possible consequences of such skin care. As a rule, complications arise when the rules of care after the procedure, sanitary standards are violated, or a specialist makes a mistake during the session.

The most dangerous consequences.

1. Swelling that persists for a long time.
2. Excessively intense redness of the skin.
3. Manifestations of allergies.

   
   One of the possible consequences is the manifestation of allergies.

6. The appearance of tumors under the surface of the skin.
7. Bruises.
8. Point hematomas.
9. Stagnation of lymphatic fluid.
10. Facial muscle failure.
11. Exacerbation of chronic diseases.
12. Appearance of scars.

Possible scarring

Having a clear understanding of all the possible consequences of the procedure, you can make an informed decision whether to agree to such an event or not. Study reviews about the procedure, the salon, the cosmetologist, look at his documents confirming his qualifications, watch a video on the Internet with the process of performing mesotherapy. All this will help you decide what you need.

Interesting ! According to statistics, the risk of complications after the procedure is no more than 3%. In non-injection methods this figure is 0.5%, in classical mesotherapy – up to 5%.

Main areas of influence

Mesotherapy can be performed on the face and body, it solves basic aesthetic problems and even helps to lose weight.

Let's look at the main areas of the face and head

on which the procedure is carried out.

Lips

Mesotherapy makes lips smooth and expressive. The skin around the lips becomes more elastic, youthful, “purse-string” wrinkles disappear, the contour becomes clearer, the relief becomes uniform, and dry skin disappears.

Hair

Mesotherapy solves the problem of hair loss by stimulating hair follicles to grow. Hair becomes thick, healthy, and acquires a pleasant natural color. The technique also successfully fights dandruff and dry scalp, prevents gray hair at a young age, and eliminates hair fragility and split ends.

Neck

After a course of mesotherapy of the face and neck, the general condition of the skin improves, the severity of horizontal wrinkles and folds decreases, local fat deposits and age spots disappear, the skin becomes more elastic and firm, and tightens. In some cases, mesotherapy can reduce the visibility of scars after surgery, for example on the thyroid gland. The technique is effective against double chin and spider veins.

Area around the eyes, eyelids

Mesotherapy for the area around the eyes effectively combats bags under the eyes and dark circles. The active components of “beauty cocktails” stimulate the production of elastin and collagen, making the skin elastic and youthful. Wrinkles are smoothed out, skin tone increases, healthy color is restored, and the skin is tightened. Mesotherapy eliminates sagging of the upper eyelid, swelling, edema, age-related imperfections, crow's feet, and dry skin.

Chin

The two main effects of mesotherapy in this area are skin tightening and double chin removal. During the procedure, so-called “non-surgical modeling” occurs.

For chin mesotherapy, special meso-cocktails are used that break down fat, strengthen the skin, and saturate it with moisture and beneficial components.

Brows

As with scalp hair, mesotherapy helps restore eyebrow thickness and fill in gaps.

Forehead

Mesotherapy successfully combats horizontal and vertical wrinkles that are characteristic of this area. The skin is tightened, rejuvenated, saturated with moisture, vitamins and minerals.

Nose and nasolabial folds

Dermal and epidermal mesotherapy can eliminate the superficial nasolabial fold at the initial stage, when it has just begun to form. Meso-cocktails stimulate your own bioprocesses, the skin becomes fresh and toned.

Now let's move on to body mesotherapy

and list the main areas in which it is successfully used.

Stomach

Abdominal mesotherapy solves many problems, for example, helps fight excess fat deposits. It activates its own regeneration processes, increases skin elasticity, gives it firmness, evens out texture and color. In addition, there are often stretch marks and scars on the abdomen, such as from a caesarean section. Mesotherapy can also eliminate these defects.

Hands

Most often, meso-cocktails are injected into the back of the hands to rejuvenate and tighten them. The drugs eliminate dryness, peeling, pigmentation, wrinkles, prominent veins and other cosmetic defects of the hands. The impact of negative environmental factors is quickly eliminated, the skin acquires a healthy color and well-groomed appearance.

Hips and buttocks

The effect of mesotherapy in this area is skin strengthening, restoration and rejuvenation. If the cocktails contain lipolytics, then local fat deposits are destroyed. The skin is tightened, smoothed, cellulite and spider veins go away, scars and stretch marks are eliminated.

Neckline area

The main effects are breast lifting and skin restoration. The technique is effective in reducing the firmness and elasticity of the skin, age-related breast sagging, pigmentation, stretch marks and scars, wrinkles, uneven relief and unhealthy skin color. Frequent clients of the mesotherapist are women who have finished breastfeeding and want to restore the attractiveness of their breasts. Mesotherapy is also often carried out as part of rehabilitation after plastic surgery.

Back

Here, the injection technique is more often used, because it is necessary to deliver the drugs clearly and purposefully to the problem area. Mesococktails usually affect blood and lymph flow, improving microcirculation in the skin, relieving pain and muscle tension, and toning them. Cocktails based on lipolytics are used to eliminate local fat deposits on the sides. Also, with the help of mesotherapy, defects such as “bull neck” and “widow’s hump” are corrected.

The effectiveness of fractional mesotherapy for facial skin

A number of features of fractional exposure lead to the fact that the effect of microneedling therapy is not only persistent, but also clearly visible visually:

1. Obsolete cells are destroyed.

Old tissues are destroyed under the influence of serum that penetrates the epidermis when puncturing the skin surface. Stem cells located near the injection site begin to actively function.

As a result:

• dead cells are removed;
• elastin production is activated;
• melanin is renewed;
• the amount of collagen increases.

2. Blood flow increases.

It leads to:

• acceleration of metabolic processes;
• rejuvenation of the epidermis;
• stimulation of the lymphatic system;
• reduction of subcutaneous deposits.

After a single injection, positive changes are noticeable, and a full course of manipulation leads to the following results:

• wrinkles in the eye area disappear (including deep age wrinkles);
• the volume of nasolabial folds decreases;
• facial muscle tone increases;
• thin skin is strengthened;
• shine on the forehead is eliminated;
• various scars are visually reduced;
• pores become less noticeable;
• the elasticity of the epidermis increases;
• swelling decreases;
• inflammatory processes stop;
• the skin “sags” less;
• the number of freckles and age spots decreases;
• the jawline becomes more prominent;
• cheekbones stand out;
• excess chins are reduced;
• spider veins become less pronounced.

Very often, after plastic surgery, fractional methods are recommended as rehabilitation measures. When choosing a suitable salon, you can familiarize yourself in advance with the effectiveness of fractional mesotherapy for facial skin, reviews and photos of the results of this procedure. Basically, a complex effect is offered, provided by a whole range of drugs:

1. A combination of meso-cocktails with peptides and substances that stimulate natural cell regeneration. This option is most often chosen by celebrities. Hyaluronic acid in this complex helps smooth out wrinkles. As a result, comprehensive rejuvenation is achieved, skin tone increases and collagen production is stimulated.
2. Procedures complemented by lifting produce an effect comparable to the use of Botox.
3. A special meso-cocktail mixture with vitamins, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid will be useful for those who go on vacation. Thanks to this protective composition, the skin will intensively regenerate even when you expose it to the sun.
4. The moisturizing mixture will refresh the skin, and you will feel the changes immediately after the procedure. This effect is especially useful on the eve of the cold season.

Depending on the problems that you plan to solve using the fractional technique, a certain number of sessions will be required. A properly selected medicinal mixture will achieve maximum effect. Before deciding to conduct a course of microinjections, you should familiarize yourself with the advantages of fractional mesotherapy for facial skin:

1. The active substances of the medicinal composition promote the regeneration of the skin, activating natural regenerative processes.
2. When punctured by a needle, there is no tension effect. The needles have a special structure and shape that is sharpened to prevent irritation of pain receptors.
3. No additional pain relief is required.
4. The effect of fractional mesotherapy appears immediately after the session. The processes of skin regeneration and restoration occur quickly.
5. Short rehabilitation period.
6. Manifestation of cumulative action: the effect of microinjections is enhanced due to concentration in a given direction.
7. Silver coating of needles for fractional mesotherapy helps to avoid inflammatory processes in the epidermis.
8. The number of punctures and dosages is much more precise than with the conventional cleaning method. All thanks to the use of special equipment for performing injections.
9. Long lasting.

It should not be surprising that cosmetologists are such active supporters of fractional mesotherapy for facial skin. A wide range of indications includes a huge list of problems that can be solved by performing these manipulations. At the same time, fractional mesotherapy demonstrates high efficiency, while remaining the most painless and affordable.

These benefits have caused a significant increase in the popularity of innovative anti-aging techniques. It is an excellent alternative to various plastic surgeries that women resort to in an attempt to stop the process of biological aging.

A visually noticeable effect appears after just three procedures, and during five sessions, damaged skin is almost completely regenerated.

The best option is to conduct four sessions over two months. Already on the second day after the procedure, you can use decorative cosmetics and even shave. Sometimes, with high individual sensitivity of the skin, slight swelling may occur. Within 24 hours after the manipulation, it is advisable to apply a nourishing serum to the face, since it is at this time that the basal layer of the epidermis is actively regenerating.

If you do not trust dry information about this procedure, you can familiarize yourself with the photos before and after fractional mesotherapy of facial skin and its effectiveness, which is clearly presented on the Internet.

What problems can mesotherapy help cope with?

This technique is effective against the following aesthetic problems:

• Cellulite.
  Mesococktails eliminate local fat deposits and even out the skin texture, while tightening it. Therefore, the “orange peel” completely disappears.
• Pimples.
  Some meso-cocktails contain antibacterial components specifically for fighting acne. They kill bacteria that cause the defect, and the injections themselves trigger regeneration processes. The skin becomes healthy and fresh.
• Scarring.
  Mesococktails purposefully smooth out scars, stimulate tissue regeneration and metabolic processes. The best results are in the early stages of scarring.
• Baldness and hair loss.
  Mesotherapy normalizes the functioning of the sebaceous glands of the scalp, activates hair growth, and strengthens hair follicles. Therefore, it helps not only with hair loss, but also with baldness. However, in the latter case, it is important that the hair follicles are preserved. For hormonal baldness in men, mesotherapy is ineffective.
• Stretch marks.
  Mesotherapy is one of the most effective procedures against stretch marks. It stimulates tissue regeneration and metabolic processes, as a result of which the skin in the affected area is renewed and stretch marks disappear.
• Dark circles and bags under the eyes.
  Mesotherapy normalizes lymph flow, eliminates local fat deposits, tightens the skin, which allows you to effectively combat bags under the eyes. And its ability to restore normal skin color helps eliminate dark circles.
• Dark spots.
  They are eliminated due to the presence of substances in the mesococktails that destroy melanin. After just 2-3 procedures, pigmentation becomes lighter.
• Wrinkles.
  Mesotherapy is the most common and gentle technique that allows you to eliminate wrinkles, including facial wrinkles, purse-string wrinkles, crow's feet, and wrinkles that begin on the forehead.

BB Glow

BB Glow is one of the types of mesonidling. In addition to activating the metabolism of skin cells and combating age-related changes, this procedure provides a pronounced aesthetic effect of lightening and smoothing the skin, giving it a “glow of beauty.” It's like you've applied a light BB cream.

Benefits of the procedure

In addition to the advantages of fractional mesotherapy itself, BB Glow has the following:

• saving time on daily makeup;
• a special tint serum does not smudge, does not leave marks on clothes and does not clog pores, like foundation does;
• dark circles under the eyes disappear;
• masks vascular redness and freckles;
• An obvious change in skin quality occurs already in the first visit to a cosmetologist. After 3 procedures, the effect of the BB cream lasts for 1 year.

The result of BB Glow depends 90% on the quality of the ingredients! It is not advisable to choose based on price here - cheap Chinese serums can harm the body. We recommend giving preference to those products in which plant extracts and vitamins predominate.

Ultra BB Solution Serums

Serums for BB Glow are developed based on hyaluronic acid. Beneficial ingredients protect and moisturize the skin, providing it with a flawless complexion without unevenness or blemishes. Ultra BB Solution serums contain:

• sodium hyaluronate - has a rejuvenating, moisturizing, smoothing and anti-inflammatory effect;
• complex of peptides - helps smooth out wrinkles, increase tone, strengthen collagen fibers, activate regenerative processes in tissues;
• Asian centella extract - softens and moisturizes, regulates sebum secretion, tightens pores;
• aloe leaf juice - relieves inflammation, prevents pigmentation, helps eliminate acne;
• witch hazel solution - has antiseptic properties and promotes regeneration;
• nicotinamide - brightens and improves blood circulation;
• green tea leaf extract - improves complexion and slows down the aging process, has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects, promotes the penetration of biologically active substances into the skin;
• willow bark extract - improves skin condition, eliminates inflammation, narrows enlarged pores, normalizes sebum secretion;
• Chinese cinnamon extract - activates collagen synthesis, has antibacterial and antiseptic effects;
• oregano leaf extract - has an astringent, tonic and anti-inflammatory effect;
• hinoki leaf extract - has a pronounced antimicrobial effect, general tonic and anti-inflammatory effect;
• purslane extract - smoothes facial wrinkles, helps solve the problem of inflammation, relieves peeling and redness, and has a mild analgesic effect;
• kelp extract - a source of vitamins A and E, brightens, rejuvenates, promotes cleansing;
• Enzymatic soybean extract - has antiseptic properties and promotes regeneration.

Tone No. 1 of the serum is suitable for light-colored skin that is highly sensitive to UV radiation and prone to sunburn. No. 2 is used for medium toned skin with olive or bronze undertones that takes a tan well.

Over time, BB Glow serum does not change its color. The tone fades evenly during the process of renewal and/or exfoliation of the skin. There is no need to carry out special procedures to remove the tone.

Types of mesotherapy

• Injection
  - drugs are delivered to the middle layers of the skin using syringes with ultra-thin needles.
• Hardware room
  - the meso-cocktail is applied to the skin, and then this area is treated with the device’s nozzle. The permeability of the cell membrane during the procedure increases almost 400 times.
• Mesoscooter
  - using a special roller, the surface of which is covered with short thin needles. First, the drug is applied to the skin, and then rolled with a roller so that the meso-cocktail reaches the deep layers.
• Fractional
  – microinjection technique. The injections are made with a special attachment with silver-coated microneedles. The insertion depth is up to several mm.
• Oxygen
  – the drug penetrates the skin under the pressure of a stream of oxygen.
• Laser
  – the skin is saturated with beneficial substances under the influence of an infrared laser.

Equipment and products for microneedling

The drugs can be presented in the form of serum, gel or solution with a complex of active substances. In each case, the master cosmetologist selects the product individually, taking into account the client’s skin condition, existing problems and the degree of tolerance of certain ingredients. The action of the product can be aimed at eliminating inflammation and pigmentation, rejuvenation, and overall improvement of skin tone, color and microrelief. There are also multi-effective means.

Serums contain components such as:

• collagen,
• hyaluronic acid,
• vitamins and microelements,
• amino acids,
• lactic acid,
• plant extracts.

Microneedling devices are also selected taking into account individual characteristics. Dermaroller - along the length of the needles on the working surface. In the case of using a dermapen or a machine for permanent makeup, special module attachments are selected according to the same principles. A device or attachment with short needles is used for treatment of thin and sensitive skin. Medium length needles are used in procedures for thicker skin to eliminate deep wrinkles. Devices and attachments with long needles are used to correct deep scars, as well as for the body.

Indications for mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is characterized by increased efficiency and versatility, therefore it has many indications:

• wrinkles;
• skin ptosis;
• decreased skin tone;
• pigmentation;
• scars;
• stretch marks;
• bags and circles under the eyes;
• spider veins;
• poor complexion;
• acne and post-acne;
• local fat deposits;
• enlarged pores;
• acne on the face;
• changes in the oval of the face due to fat deposits and tissue ptosis;
• cellulite;
• sagging skin;
• prominent veins and nodes on the back of the hands.

The principle of fractional photothermolysis

In the process of treating problem areas with a directed laser beam, consisting of many individual microscopic beams, microthermal treatment zones (MTZs) are formed in the dermis in the form of a matrix mesh.
They are small wounds with coagulated walls, the diameter of which is approximately 100 microns, and the depth is no more than 2 - 3 mm. Due to the formed hollow tubes, instantaneous contraction of the skin occurs. The columns are surrounded by absolutely healthy tissue. In response to damage, the body's immune system launches a restorative regeneration process, activating fibroblasts. These are the cells of the middle layer of the dermis, which play the main restorative role in any damage to the connective tissue. They help heal wounds through the intensive production of collagen and elastin proteins. Thus, restoration of the basal layer of the epidermis occurs in the shortest possible time. The main application point for laser flow is the liquid medium. The upper epidermis, unlike the deep layers, contains a small amount of water. Therefore, coagulation occurs predominantly at the lower levels of the dermis, and the surface remains intact. Approximately 20% of the laser-treated area of ​​the dermis is exposed. This guarantees the safety of the procedure, reduces recovery time and practically does not cause side effects.

Recommendations from our clinic doctors

At what age is it better to do mesotherapy?

The procedures can be performed from the age of 18, but the best rejuvenating effect is achieved after 25.

How often should the procedures be done?

The frequency of sessions is determined by the mesotherapist after the examination. To maintain the effect, on average, you need to conduct courses at least once a year.

How many procedures are needed to achieve results?

On average, 4-10 procedures are needed to lose weight, and 5-15 to eliminate cellulite. Sessions are held once with an interval of several days (as prescribed by the doctor). To restore the oval of the face you need 4-8 sessions, to remove bags under the eyes - 1-4. Frequency: 1 time every 7-10 days.

Features of carrying out at home

Sometimes a woman does not have the opportunity to go to a salon for a procedure due to the frantic pace of life, but this does not in any way affect the desire to be beautiful and well-groomed. And an excellent assistant in such a situation is a device designed specifically for home use. It is very compact, easy to use, and a special attachment with needles allows you to repeat the salon treatment.

There is a device for performing mesotherapy at home

Interesting ! Of course, you shouldn’t expect the same amazing effect from using a mesoscooter as from a procedure in a clinic, but the result will be noticeable and will satisfy every woman.

So, what is required to carry out fractional mesotherapy at home?

Mesoscooter for home brings good results

First, you should purchase a device - a mesoscooter, equipped with several thin needles. The needles should not be very long to protect the skin from accidental injury. Secondly, you will need an alcohol solution to disinfect the nozzle. Thirdly, you need a product to accelerate skin regeneration after the procedure. It will help the skin recover quickly. This could be a mask containing aloe or Panthenol cream. Fourthly, a drug for local anesthesia is needed. The most common are “Bellasthesin”, “Lidocaine”, “Dicaine”. Fifthly, solutions with active substances will also be required. They may come with the device, but you can purchase a suitable cocktail at the pharmacy.

Interesting ! Let us remind you how each component affects the skin: for rejuvenation you need hyaluronic acid, to remove pigmentation you should use ascorbic acid, to eliminate inflammation you need to use chamomile and aloe extracts, to increase skin elasticity you should use elastin and collagen.

You need to purchase a lot to carry out the procedure at home

Home mesotherapy is also carried out in several stages.

1. The surface of the face is treated with lotion.
2. The device attachment is treated with medical alcohol.
3. An anesthetic drug is applied to the skin.
4. A meso cocktail is applied to the face. If the device has a serum reservoir, no additional facial treatment is required.
5. A gentle facial skin massage is performed with a mesoscooter for a couple of minutes.
6. After half an hour, the drug is applied to the skin to speed up the healing process.
7. After an hour, a cream is applied to nourish the skin.

It pays to stick to a plan

Procedures are carried out twice a week, the full course is no more than ten sessions. The interval between courses must be at least two months.

It is worth remembering that this procedure is a type of injection method, so it is possible to receive microtrauma to the skin. If you decide to carry out the procedure at home yourself, all responsibility lies solely with you. If side effects or complications occur, you will also be responsible. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully consider the pros and cons and evaluate the possible consequences before using the mesoscooter. The skin recovery period usually corresponds to rehabilitation after salon care.

You can carry out the procedure at home, but the responsibility for side effects will be on the person himself.

Good to know ! Before using the mesotherapy device, carefully read the instructions and watch training videos on the Internet. When buying a cocktail, pay attention to its composition, expiration date, and it is also useful to study reviews on thematic forums.

How is mesotherapy performed?

Preparations used for mesotherapy

The following drugs are used for mesotherapy:

• DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol)
  is a nutritional amino alcohol. It is produced in the human body in small quantities and comes with food. With age, its production decreases, which is why mesotherapy with it is indicated. It helps to effectively solve the problem of sagging skin and early aging.
• "Laennec"
  is a drug based on the hydrolyzate of human placenta. Allows you to deeply moisturize and restore the skin, provide enhanced cell nutrition, and slow down the aging process. Indicated for acne and post-acne, pigmentation, cellulite, skin ptosis, wrinkles, scars, during the rehabilitation period after laser resurfacing and peeling, as preparation for contouring.

What should you not do after the procedure?

• In the first hours, you should not use skincare and decorative cosmetics;
• In the first 6-7 hours you should not wash your face;
• For 2-3 days you need to give up warming procedures and staying in a bathhouse, sauna, you can’t take a hot bath;

Benefits of Microneedling

• Quick results visible after the first procedure.
• Suitable for all skin types, even thin and sensitive.
• There are no restrictions on gender and age.
• Skin trauma during microneedling is minimal.
• It has a high degree of tolerance - pain is insignificant.
• Due to the use of individual disposable cartridges for each patient, it is characterized by a high degree of safety and sterility.
• Can be used on different areas of the face and body.
• Has a short rehabilitation period.
• After microneedling, the effectiveness of home care may increase.

As a minus, it can be noted that after the procedure, slight peeling is possible, but it usually goes away after a few days.

Possible side effects and complications after mesotherapy

The first group of unwanted side effects is an allergic reaction.

for the drug. It can be delayed or immediate. A delayed reaction appears 2-3 days after secondary contact with the drug in the form of allergic dermatitis. This is persistent redness, sometimes with a rash in the form of blisters. This reaction can be caused not only by the mesococktail, but also by the local anesthetic. An immediate allergic reaction is local anaphylactic symptoms: skin swelling, itching, blisters.

Other complications:

• Soreness.
  When using the injection technique, the skin is mechanically damaged with irritation of the corresponding receptors, and it is normal that pain occurs. In addition, some medications may cause burning and pain.
• Redness at injection sites.
  This is a vascular reaction to the injection, which is also normal. The redness usually goes away on its own within 15-30 minutes; it lasts a little longer in smokers - up to 45 minutes.
• Hematomas.
  The easiest complication. The reasons for the formation of hematomas are injury to a blood vessel, a blood clotting disorder, vascular weakness, and the patient taking blood thinning medications.
• Edema.
  This is a natural response of the skin to mechanical trauma from a needle. Swelling can last for 24 hours and goes away on its own.

Who and when should not do microneedling?

The procedure has the following contraindications:

• bleeding disorders,
• cancer and autoimmune diseases,
• infectious diseases,
• diabetes,
• hepatitis,
• epilepsy and mental illness,
• period of exacerbation of skin diseases - in this case, you should wait for a period of remission,
• herpes,
• the presence of a large number of moles in the intended execution area,
• allergy to any of the components of the active serum (it is advisable to conduct a sensitivity test first),
• taking certain medications - it is necessary to warn a specialist if any drug therapy is carried out.

Microneedling is not recommended during pregnancy and lactation.

If you did deep hardware peels the day before, fractional mesotherapy is excluded.

If it is necessary to carry out the procedure in the summer, it is recommended to very carefully protect the skin from the sun, and then use a cream with a high SPF.

If there are any doubts about possible individual intolerance, it is advisable to first consult with your doctor and/or cosmetologist.

Comparison of mesotherapy with other procedures

Let's compare mesotherapy with two popular techniques - biorevitalization

and
plasma lifting
.

What is better, mesotherapy or plasma lifting?

The essence of plasmolifting is the same meso-injections into the skin. However, it is not mesococktails that are administered, but the patient’s own blood plasma enriched with platelets. It is obtained by centrifugation, after taking 9-36 ml of blood from a person, depending on the purpose of the procedure.

Unlike mesotherapy, plasma lifting does not cause allergies, because your own plasma is 100% biocompatible. Thanks to such injections, restoration and metabolic processes in tissues are accelerated, cells are renewed faster. The skin becomes more elastic, moisturized, tightened, and the severity of pigmentation and wrinkles decreases.

Plasmolifting is also performed for the face and body, but it improves the skin not cosmetically, but by restoring its structure. At the systemic level, the processes occurring in the skin are normalized, all its layers are restored. Not just a visual effect is achieved, but the youth and health of the skin is restored, thanks to the growth factors contained in platelets.

It is difficult to answer unequivocally which is better. The main indication for plasma lifting is the tendency to allergic reactions that can occur when using mesotherapy.

The difference between mesotherapy and biorevitalization

Biorevitalization and mesotherapy are similar, but there are several differences between them:

• During mesotherapy, liquid meso-cocktails are introduced, and during biorevitalization, gel-like thick substances are introduced;
• Biorevitalization is aimed more at prevention than eliminating serious problems;
• The effect of mesotherapy is almost instantaneous, while that of biorevitalization is delayed; time must pass until natural processes start in the dermis;
• The effect of the drug administered during biorevitalization lasts twice as long.

The history of microneedling

Essentially, microneedling is a type of acupuncture (acupuncture), one of the oldest forms of treatment. China is considered to be the birthplace of acupuncture, but archaeological finds show that it was also used by other peoples - the inhabitants of Ancient Egypt, Tibet, Nepal, India...

Europe experienced a boom in acupuncture treatments in the 19th century. A new impetus for its development arose in the 50s of the 20th century. Microneedling was discovered almost by accident at the end of the 20th century. In 1997, Dr. Andre Camirand showed that applying an ink-free tattoo gun to areas of scar tissue could improve the appearance of surgical scars as well as their texture. After this, the method was improved. In 1999, Dr. Desmond Fernandez developed a special needle roller to effectively target scar tissue. This is how the dermaroller was born.

But the fractional mesotherapy procedure gained real popularity relatively recently thanks to Kim Kardashian. The star has more than once posted photos on Instagram during microneedling and positive reviews, which, of course, could not help but attract the closest attention of her army of followers. The method was instantly declared a “megatrend”, like almost everything Kim touches.

Hello! I have been going to Dr. Gruzdev’s clinic for several months now and am very pleased with the approach and procedures. I went to different doctors because it is not always convenient for me to go during my doctor’s office hours. All doctors are equally good and you can immediately feel their professionalism. I did Dot, after that I took a course of mesotherapy, then after a while I did Dysport. I am very pleased with everything and will recommend it to all my friends! Thank you!

Benefits of the Palomar 1540 Fractional Non-Ablative Laser

High efficiency

. Repeatedly confirmed clinical results. Fractional laser generates more energy per microbeam than other laser systems and provides a unique treatment depth of up to 2 mm. With just 2-3 passes over the surface of the skin, a high density of micro-rays is achieved, which contributes to the effective solution of aesthetic problems while simultaneously improving the structure of the skin and eliminating dyschromia.

Safety and painlessness.

Maximum safety and painlessness of procedures, compared to all other fractional lasers, is achieved by using patented smooth pulse technology in combination with constant contact cooling of the skin carried out during laser exposure.

Fast rehabilitation.

The fractional method of exposure minimizes skin damage by activating tissue regeneration from intact areas of the skin. By preserving the regenerative resource of the skin, the patient’s rehabilitation period after the procedure is significantly reduced.

Speed ​​and convenience of the procedure

. Does not require anesthetics or special gels. The 1540 laser is used on dry skin without applying anesthetics or special gel preparations. Working without additional consumables saves time and money.

We carry out procedures using the Palomar device (Palomar)

Using this device in practice allows you to solve the problem of aging, “erasing” even the deepest wrinkles from your face. The popularity of the method is also justified by its complete safety, affordable price and lack of pain.

Fractional facial rejuvenation with Palomar Lux 1540 is the best alternative method that can effectively resist a facelift through surgery. Non-surgical

rejuvenation can give attractiveness and a beautiful appearance, returning all the signs of youth.

What areas of the body is it applied to?

Fractional mesotherapy has a wide range of actions aimed at different parts of the body.

• Face. Facial skin is most susceptible to aging due to facial expressions and the negative effects of ultraviolet rays. The completed course of treatment will improve the oval of the face and solve problems of the epidermis.
• Eyelids. With insufficient care, the skin of the eyelids begins to become covered with “crow’s feet” after 30–40 years. The procedure quickly resolves the problem.
• Body. Among all the methods of mesotherapy for the body, fractional is used most often - covering a large area of ​​the body is too problematic. By supplementing the procedure with sports activities, diet and massage, the patient brings the body to perfection.
• Hair. Due to genetic predisposition, stress, lack of vitamins and microelements, hair loss or baldness begins. The injections will deliver all the necessary substances to the hair roots and hair follicles. The procedure ensures blood flow to the hair area, accelerating the growth of curls.

Post-procedure period, recommendations

To speed up the recovery process, experts recommend following some rules:

• It is not recommended to apply cosmetics that cause irritation to the treated skin;
• touch your face;
• engage in active physical activity;
• It is forbidden to visit the bathhouse, swimming pool, solarium;
• you should avoid taking sunbaths and hot baths;
• use decorative cosmetics;
• warming masks provoke inflammation and are therefore not recommended for the recovery period;
• use anti-inflammatory and moisturizing creams recommended by a specialist for the skin.

One of the main advantages of this procedure is the rapid restoration of the skin (about a day). Therefore, after 24 hours the restrictions are lifted. In some cases, taking into account individual characteristics, prohibitions last longer.
